Arizona By William M. My state is Arizona. It’s known for canyons and mountains. It’s also known for bones and fossils. So if you like to hike or dig, read on to find out more.
First of all, Arizona is sunny. There are 332 days of sunny skies. During the warm days it’s nice to sunbathe or relax and enjoy the weather all day long. 100 degrees is the common temperature in the summer. 60 degrees is the common temperature in the winter. So bring short sleeves, shorts, jeans, and a water bottle.
There’s many things to do. You can go on a hike at the Grand Canyon or get petrified wood from the Petrified Forest. Here you will see a part of the London Bridge that someone bought and brought it stone by stone so now it crosses Lake Havasu. Climb the Superstition Mountains and try to find the lost Dutchman Mine, not found since the 1870’s. Visit a Spanish fort built in 1776. Go to the Old Tucson Studio, where western movies are still made.
Some fascinating facts are that the Grand Canyon was carved by the Colorado River. The Fiesta Bowl is held in Tempe. Arizona is part of the Four Corners; it’s where Arizona, Utah, Colorado, and New Mexico meet. Arizona became a state on Valentines Day in 1912. It has towns named Christmas and Santa Claus. The discovery of the planet Pluto was in Flagstaff.
You now know what to bring, where to go, and some awesome facts about Arizona. So, why don’t you come over to find out more? Join me under the Arizona sun. I’ll be waiting!
